The CEDIA panel of judges had a tough time determining the ultimate winner in this particular category – after picking the finalists, all of whom were, in the judges’ words, “excellent,” – this simple, sustainable, and aesthetically beautiful project took top honors.

Some of what convinced the judges to hand the trophy to Look & Listen was the incredible attention to detail: Parts of the project were produced exclusively to match the visual aspects of Lutron white glass lighting keypads and ensure a consistent look and feel across the interior of the property.

The needs that the integrator had to meet, according to Look & Listen:
“The client’s [directive] was to create a home that ‘lives’ the way his family does. He envisioned a unique, comfortable, and secure environment for all family members to gather and enjoy."

“High on the client’s list was security, he wanted to ensure that all family members and guests had easy and simple keyless access to the property at all times. Second was shading for privacy due to the number of windows used to capture all the views.”

“In the ground floor TV room, a custom rotating TV lift was designed to be recessed into the floor. Once the lift is fully up, if the glass doors are open, there is a second zone called ‘Pool’ where the TV will rotate to watch while swimming.”
